Chapter 1055: He Doesn’t Like to Talk When He’s Happy
"Sorry! Everyone knows Beicheng has always been like this; when he’s happy, he doesn’t like to talk."Unlike Gu Beicheng, Yu Wanqing had a mini microphone clipped to her collar, so her words could be heard by almost everyone present.
"Thank you all for taking the time out of your busy schedules to come..." Suddenly, Gu Beicheng took the microphone and said a few polite and somewhat formal words.
The woman who had just said that the Seventh Young Master doesn’t like to talk when he’s happy was left quite embarrassed.
The people present were also very surprised, both by the few words from the Seventh Young Master and the relationship between the two protagonists today.
With a smile on his face, Gu Beicheng handed the microphone back to the Emcee; nobody could really understand what he was thinking inside.
Before Yu Wanqing could react, he casually withdrew his arm and turned to leave the stage without any displeasure on his face.
Yu Wanqing was left standing alone, her mood as chaotic as a gust of wind.
The Emcee swallowed a gulp of saliva, turned around, and faced the people below the stage.
"Thank you, Seventh Young Master, for the wonderful speech. Now, I officially announce the start of today’s banquet."
"Once again, let’s give a warm round of applause to the Seventh Young Master and Lady Qing, thank you!"
The Emcee bowed at ninety degrees to show appreciation.
As the applause subsided, he turned back to Yu Wanqing’s side.
"Seeing Lady Qing, everyone should realize how happy the Seventh Young Master is tonight to finally win the beauty’s heart. Lady Qing, please!"
The Emcee politely bowed and gestured, smoothing over the earlier awkwardness.
In fact, Yu Wanqing quickly recovered as well; if she couldn’t handle such a minor issue, how could she be the Seventh Young Master’s woman?
Yu Wanqing wore her signature smile, nodding happily at everyone before following the Emcee in the direction Gu Beicheng had left.
Watching her demeanor, everyone would only think that the Seventh Young Master was setting the mood earlier, without thinking much else.
The banquet officially began, and the venue soon became lively.
But Xia Yinian’s mood couldn’t lift.
She was certainly worried about Uncle’s innocence, but knowing Yu Wanqing loved him so much, she wouldn’t harm his body.
Perhaps her bad mood was more due to seeing such a grand scene and feeling a bit envious of Yu Wanqing.
Watching the man she liked getting engaged to another woman, how could she not feel anything? Not being happy was only normal, right?
Xia Yinian had long known about this affair and knew that Uncle was being forced.
She originally thought she wouldn’t feel anything, but when the moment actually arrived, she realized it was still hard to let go.
Suddenly, a warm hand grasped her fidgeting hands.
"Thank you for coming." Gu Lingqian clinked glasses with an approaching guest and took a sip of red wine.
Hearing Gu Lingqian’s words, Xia Yinian realized someone had come over to toast.
She took a deep breath, trying her best to adjust her mood.
She was Brother Ling Qian’s fiancée; she and Uncle had nothing to do with each other. She was Brother Ling Qian’s fiancée; she and Uncle had nothing to do with each other...
Xia Yinian kept hypnotizing herself, trying to numb her nerves and temporarily hide the thoughts she couldn’t afford to have.
"Nian Nian, this is Uncle Yuan. Uncle Yuan, this is my fiancée, Nian Nian." Gu Lingqian introduced, holding Xia Yinian’s hand.
Xia Yinian finally managed to collect herself and looked at the man before her, softly pressing her lips together and nodding slightly.
"Hello, Uncle Yuan!"
